I take it they fall off if not pollinated so whats the best way to make sure they are pollinated?

Spray?
Paint Brush?
Leave door of green house open longer so insects can get in?

plant something in there that attracts the insects in  ;D

Misting with water is meant to encourage fruiting....

Are you quite sure you have bud drop as opposed to petal drop?

Have a closer look and see if tiny embryo fruit have formed.

Yeah quite sure, broken from the base of the steam of the flower.  Like what happens with un-pollinated tomatoes.  I think it could have been slugs!!!!

I lost a few flowers off mine too, I put it down to drastic temp changes. It was very warm......then cooler, much cooler. Thats when mine dropped anyways :-\

Aggravating and sorry to hear it, Star.  I've never successfully grown good peppers but have heard they are temp sensitive. Trying again this year but only have a few buds so far.

Yeah could well have been the temp change.
